Christmas in August, or The Joys of New Toys

by Linda Okazaki

Looking through the pile of photos and documents from Bill and Lilo has been fun. Each new page brings forth a flood of sentiment. Deciding how to organize and scan is the next step in this process. Fortunately, Ted set up my new scanner last night, a Cadillac of scanners from my perspective. Not only can it scan documents, images and film, it can also adjust the DPI from 50 to 1200, something not possible with my old Canon. On top of that, I can scan in just about any format I choose, not just Jpeg or Bitmap or PDF, but Tiff as well. It’s going to be a fun weekend playing with my new toys.
